The actress was 17 when she filmed two very intimate scenes in the show’s fourth episode.
“It scared me, because at that point I still hadn’t met Paddy, I didn’t know how much of a joy he was and how easy he was going to make [the scene],” Carey said.According to the “Wonder Woman” star, the show hired an intimacy coordinator for the well-being of both actors while filming the sex scene.
“Having that outlet of the intimacy coordinator, to be able to talk everything through and not be shunned, or not feel awkward, or not feel like ‘Oh, this isn’t your job. I don’t want to make you feel uncomfortable but can I ask you…’ It was never any of that, it was just that open dialogue.”Photograph by Ollie Upton / HBOcoordinators saying they “spoil the spontaneity” of sex scenes.
